    Someone much wiser than I, put this link about cramping on this website and I thought it was such a good article that I put it on my favorites.

    Go to http://ultracycling.com/training/cramping.html

    It is a great article about cramping

    Last night, I stayed up watching tv with my cousin who is passing through, so I didn't do my stretches. That is the last night I will fail to stretch! My gasps of pain woke up my husband at 5 a.m. and I could not straighten my leg. When I finally got up, I couldn't put my heel all the way to the ground, I walked around on tiptoe for a while. It's loosened up now.

    I didn't feel too bad about waking him up. He woke me up at 4 a.m. when he got up to go the bathroom and stepped on his glasses, then turned on the light to look for the little bits.
